I genuinely don't remember the last time I saw someone print something directly from Photoshop. Even professional photo studios I've worked with always save their files (usually to TIFF), open them in a previewer to double-check then and then send them to the printer directly.

This isn't one of those "FOSS devs sticking to the UNIX philosophy to a fault, usability be damned" situations. Printing is the kind of thing that is either done so rarely that the literally only two extra clicks aren't going to matter or so frequently that you want to be using a batch workflow anyways.

No offense if it just didn't occur to you at the time (I've been there), but "I'll just save the image and print that" is something that I image the vast, vast majority of computer users could figure out in no time and is surely not a significant factor in Adobe's market dominance.
Well, it has been done in the past - automobile (and many other!) companies built tanks and other war material during WW2.
Yep, I'm working on a multidimensional version that I hope to upload to the main repo (https://github.com/gvinciguerra/PGM-index) in a few weeks.
It’s an analytic science.
It's mostly at the rumor level, but this concept seems to be supported by decision makers so far. AFAIK no decision or timeline yet.
Local anecdote: the new-ish mayor here in my city in France was in the news today after announcing a plan to ban much outdoor advertising and reduce the rest to far smaller panels. [0] It’s a controversial idea for a couple of reasons including that some apartment buildings have long used advertising ‘wrap arounds’ to hide major building-wide renovation projects and, in doing so, subsidise the cost of those renovations. As well, the city has a wonderful bike share scheme that has been paid for by giving away the rights to the external advertising panels that the city controls to a billboard/outdoor ad company. The bikes are used by thousands every day and it is affordable only because of the payment in kind that the outdoor ads represent; I’m not sure what happens to that scheme when the outdoor ad space is reduced and the bike scheme operator cries contract law.

On the other side of the coin, there is an active group of activists in the city that will paper over outdoor billboards and electronic signs with their slogan ’Stop Pub’ (stop advertising) and they seem to have some support, too. The mayor certainly seems sympathetic to their cause, if not all of their methods.

Selection bias. I'd think that's how people you happen to hang out with, or talk with on the internet, might be.

But not people in general, at least not the ones I've met from the US (lots of people).

The Roadster was able to do it, but Elon said that it wasn't used enough, and probably it's not worth it because of the battery degradation.
They make up for it by learning from everyone. They even send their kids all over the world to go to university.
The Boeing 727 is one example where the yaw damping systems are an important feature.

Yaw dampers in general are very common. Most (all?) airliners have them in one form or another. The reason for this is that swept wings inherently tend to increase susceptibility to Dutch roll. And yet we don't conclude from this that it's inherently irresponsible of aircraft manufacturers to make airliners with swept wings.
Jumping spiders are amazing, and have such complex behaviour and the ability to learn. For sure tiny creatures they pack a lot in.

I love spiders but avoid touching them if I can.
How /r/wallstreetbets 'solved' the market
So our accountants might not be Big 4, but they're in the top 30 in the UK and considered reputable. I'm pretty sure that the overcharge of a Big 4 would swallow up donations much more than a screwup like this. That said, we obviously don't want a repeat performance of this, and will be figuring out what to do to avoid it.
I listened to a podcast with the founder recently and it sounds like they are trying to go more into that direction, which would be a key differentiator if they manage to do it (rather than just providing a tool to manage feedback/build roadmaps). In terms of "deciding what to build", user research tools such as https://dovetailapp.com/ and https://consider.ly/ might be interesting as well. They are just not positioning themselves towards Product Managers (yet).
Do any of those other platforms use any AWS services themselves? If they do, or want to have the option in the future, they might cooperate in the shunning of Parler just to avoid being shunned themselves.
Even in the ideal case, where your central planners are competent and moral indefinitely, centralization is a swingy strategy, for countries or companies. Every investment is ultimately a bet, that you have correctly predicted the future needs of your citizens or customers. Centralized control, of states through an autocrat or central committee, or of markets by monopolies or megacorps, ultimately amounts to placing fewer, larger bets. When the bets are good, it is very very good; when the bets are bad, it is ruinous.

Decentralized decision making is ultimately conservative, risk adverse: it is never great -- a lot of people will be wrong, so things will never go as good as they might. But it is seldom terrible: even when context shifts and the underlying conditions everyone was betting on change, the wide diversity of bets means that at least some people won't have been completely wrong, maybe for stupid reasons, but it can prevent a complete catastrophe.

(The difficulty, of course, lies in socializing the losses and gains, so that you can benefit from decentralized decision making without it ultimately reverting to a de facto central committee through successive rounds of winnowing those who guess wrong, until the small number of people who had so far guessed right can begin guessing wrong at scale.)

I wouldn't go anywhere near the Big 4 to be honest, this whole thread is a non-issue and if anything just points to problems inside Companies House
Is that €30/hr what a cleaning company charges to clients, or what the workers get? Finland doesn't have a minimum wage, so I don't understand what's typical there, but it seems rather high if it's the later - in UK/France/Germany they'd get little more than €10/hr.

Their slides https://pgm.di.unipi.it/slides-pgm-index-vldb.pdf about PGM index, page 21.

They stop at page size of 1024 bytes - that indicates they are tested in-memory situation. And, which is worse, their compression ratio advantage almost halves when block size is doubled. Thus, what about B-tree with blocks of 16K or even 256K?

Also, what about log-structured merge trees where bigger levels can use bigger pages and, which is quite important, these bigger levels can be constructed using (partial) data scan. These bigger levels can (and should) be immutable, which enables simple byte slicing of keys and RLE compression.

So, where's a comparison with more or less contemporary data structures and algorithms? Why beat half a century old data structure using settings of said data structure that favors your approach?

My former colleague once said "give your baseline some love and it will surprise you". I see no love for B-trees in the PGM work.
The road ahead for MirageOS in 2021
I have had house centipedes everywhere I’ve lived. I prefer them to almost any bug. They are very useful for pest control. Similar diet to spiders as I understand it, and I find them much less “frightening”. My deal with them is they need to stay out of my bed. They have had no issue with that...However, my wife’s rule is they have to stay out of her sight. she generally falls asleep on the earlier side. Especially now that we have children. This keeps the centipedes safe and the pest numbers low.
The state could create development programs for those regions and subsidize people moving there by their own will.

This could drive down housing costs in cities under pressure and benefit everyone.
So there is no other source to back up OPs claim that Rynanair the safest in Europe?
The agreement with the public includes the agreement that a missed filing results in a fine, not in revocation of their protections and privileges.

But more generally - my claim is that if the public wants a deal with charities where they must be flawless, that's a bad deal for the public. Effective people will make mistakes sometimes, ranging from missing a filing deadline to hiring people who end up not good at their job to trying some charitable activity that ends up not working. If we hold them to a standard of perfection, the rational activity of the people behind the charity is to just do something else. Is that good for us?

Of course we want them to be accountable - I'm not arguing that they should be able to do whatever, and they should try to meet all these requirements, that's why we the public encoded the requirements in the first place. I'm arguing that there's a big difference between accountability and expecting perfection.

The human driver has a number of options to adjust their “cameras” (eyes) that the Tesla doesn’t. E.g., flipping down the sun shield, adjusting head position to reduce glare, or even putting on a pair of polarized sunglasses.

While there are technical solutions possible with more hardware, it’s not clear that Tesla could correct for some of these things in just software...
Not to embark upon the most pointless internet debate in the world, but I'm absolutly certain that's a mistake.

Vendettas spanning generations are because your social status require it, not because it is universal emotional reaction to someone being killed three generations ago. That is about mafia dominance struggle.

Moreover, other phenomenon in low legal justice areas is that if you or your family is not powerful enough, you suck it up and shut up when someone more powerful kill your relative. Or even when equal does that, unless you are connected to one of mafias. The average person when they have relative killed in drunken auto accident wont kill in revenge.

Even criminal groups more often kill for profit or to get rid or witness then pure vengeance.
Not even this millennia.
> Are you saying JPM going down means there is no alternate provider and everyone defaults in 12 hours

Yes. Look up how tri-party repos work [1] and then look up the Fed’s commentary on their fragility.

One of the three legs is either JPMorgan or BoNY. These are short-term but critical loans. If one of those two fails or goes offline, which practically means failure since others can’t verify the other two legs’ liquidity, large swathes of the rates, credit, futures, regular repo and stock loan markets go offline which quite literally will lead to, maybe not Exxon, but the likes GE having payments failures. You can’t “hot swap” JPMorgan to BoNY after the contract has been initiated. It would be like saying it doesn’t matter if your brokerage fails, just call someone else. Sure, for your next trade that’s fine, but in the meantime the failed broker has your assets.

> Better hope that information doesn’t become public or else they will be prime targets for coercion, bribes, nation state level manipulation, etc.

Friend is a senior IT guy at BoNY. They are regularly in touch with the Fed and FBI. It’s a known vulnerability, and there is constant scholarship and policy work on nationalising or reforming the tri-party repo market. But it’s never failed, and it’s profitable work for the two champions, so for now there are higher priorities for legislators.

Also, there are loads of these centralised pressure points in our system. In every modern financial system. Cede & Co., the Fedwire system, ADP, et cetera.

SpaceX will be conducting a 12.5 km test flight of their SN9 prototype vehicle. This flight will be a repeat of the largely successful SN8 test flight, with some possible minor flight profile changes.

SN9 will lift off from Boca Chica, Texas under the power of its three Raptor engines. The Raptor engines will shut off one by one during ascent to decrease loads and acceleration on the vehicle. At apogee, the single Raptor engine still burning will initiate the vertical-to-horizontal flip before shutting off. SN9 will make use of its body flaps to keep it stable during descent. Prior to landing, SN9 will ignite two of its Raptor engines to reorientate itself back into a vertical position and perform a propulsive landing.

So the engine shut-offs for the SN8 test were indeed deliberate.
I learned to program on an Apple IIe, at probably 9 or 10 years old.

One thing about computers those days was that learning to program was often considered part of using the machine. Like the Apple IIe came with manuals that taught you Apple Basic, and I remember my Dad trying to learn it, with some minor success (although not as much as me).

It was kind of assumed that to be making full use of the machine as a consumer, you'd have to learn to program. I guess because the OS/UI were "closer to the metal".

Middle school "computing" class, which all students took, also involved teaching programming, although on Commodore 64s.

Another thing I'd note about the OP is that most of the game splashscreens shown have "cracked by" attributions added to them, which goes without comment in the OP. :)
Well, you've done me a favor by identifying a problem that did not show up with my test data. It’ll take me a while to fix it, and and I’ll reply here again when it’s done.
well i am that stupid guy who refused to install whatsapp. yes, i have heard that hundreds of times till now. even though the idea of "shadow profiles" my phone is already in facebook/whatsapp/truecaller DBs but i have never been able to accept that on a personal level. it just feels wrong doing it.

back in 2016 i decided to be the renegade and go to the shiny new telegram when everyone was over at whatsapp. took me years to convince 3-6 relatives to install telegram if they wanted to talk to me. wanted to avoid "whatsapp university" because everyone knows when unkills come to "chat". this meant that even today my messaging is on demand, if i want to talk to someone, i message them, reply and i close the app.

over the past month i have seen an explosion of "x joined telegram" and i told those relatives "remember how i made you download telegram back in the day, now i want you to get element because i am quitting telegram". that brought a few laughs.

my point is like yours. short of something catastrophic with whatsapp or facebook or instagram, people will not change because it requires you to download an app which takes 5 minutes. too much friction. /s
In my street it's the other way around. If you buy an electric car, the city will guarantee a charging spot in your street, which is basically a private parking spot if you're the only one in the street with an electric car.

We have a shared garage with other people in our building. One family bought an electric car and wanted a charger in the garage, but despite the whole HOA agreeing, it's apparently too hard to get metered electricity down there.
I meant that the largest (by population) countries with high birthrates are quickly entering the same demographic situation as mentioned in the article. They are being closely followed by another host of countries as rapid industrialization/modernization moves on down the line. The pool of people willing to migrate for economic reasons is shrinking. Meanwhile, we are not much closer to solving the problems that cheap overseas labour and cheap imported labour were keeping at bay. That curse even seems to be passing on to the countries where we used to draw our labour from meaning that we are now competing with them for immigrants, migrant workers, and outsourced labour. It's a fiendish game of musical chairs.

Blazor is far from boring, dotnet compiling to Web assembly is pretty cutting edge. But that's the problem, it's too new. So just like boring old technology, your going to have trouble finding developers with experience in it...
I'd be interested to read a paper discussing what appears to be a previously unsuspected failure mode of sterile insect technique.

Granted, I have to assume that that's what you're talking about under all the absurd hyperbole, because all the absurd hyperbole gets in the way. But if that is what you're trying to get at, do you have a cite?
Yes but suggestion of original poster was to kill all mosquitos without even mentioning anything about malaria. My comment was to point out that such blanket approach is terrifying.

Now that we digging in to details we see that when we look deeper in to problem we don't need to kill "all mosquitos" apparently.
Yes, but without faith in mathematics, you cannot trust scientific results.
What I have yet to see a source is on how many hydro resources we have that can help with this mix, particularly those that can be used as pumped storage. Cold, windless days in winter are the worst case scenario for wind+solar on the grid but hydro should be at its peak around that time.

I was surprised to find recently that Portugal is a net exporter of energy in winter and importer in summer[1]. We're currently building a bunch of solar and already do quite a bit of pumped hydro. Getting to 100% renewables by 2030 should be fairly straightforward but obviously not all places have the same kind of hydro resources. But maybe the European grid as a whole has what's needed and we "just" need better interconnects. HVDC seems promising.

You have to understand why the rest of the organization wants to know what the product team is working on. There is a different needs depending on the type of company you are working at:

- If you are working in a saas b2b smb or b2c, usually as a product team you don't want to commit on anything, so the rest of the organization (except leadership) wants to know if a feature, is on the list of things the product team is thinking of or if they don't plan at all to work on a feature. And if you are very good you can split features in 3 buckets : things you are working on, things you are thinking about, all others. And for leadership, basically they don't really have to know what the product team is working on, it is on them to decide the vision of the company. The product vision will just represent the company vision in another angle

- If you are working on saas b2b enterprise. Things are different. There need to be visibility on what the product team is going to work on during the next 3 years. That doesn't need to be really accurate, but needs to reflect more or less what customers want to hear. There is also a need to know for users facing teams (support, CSM, ...) if a bug is, being worked on, will be at some point, dont care.

In any way, one thing you never want to communicate is a date of release of anything.

A release plan is only needed internally between the close collaborators of the PM: eng lead, product marketing, knowledge managers so that they can plan beforehand things that they need to produce on top of your product

In the industrial sectors that I watch (test equipment, industrial machinery), China has been climbing the ladder at a startling rate, from "outsourced labor" to "copycat" to "bottom tier" to "mid tier" in the last decade. They're now gunning for high tier equipment, and they show every indication of getting there in the next few years.

We have a running gag about the bad roads in Upstate NY; frequently you see a road on a map that looks passable, but if you try it you may find four-foot potholes. The old USGS maps are often wrong and may not have been corrected if tree cover is sufficient you can't see the road from the sky.

My late-model Garmin is conservative about what roads it takes, avoiding many good roads, but last week I saw some lady get stuck in an unplowed road in the state forest that her GPS sent her down despite a sign that says the road is unmaintained from Dec 1 to Apr 1.
